OMG!!! Just got ran over!!

[smurfer]

Yup it finally happened after three years od riding, anyway I was on the sidewalk with the motor off cruising at 15 mph just when I was about to cross the street this suv pulls right in front of me, OH s**t I kinda just threw the bike as I was laying it down really no time I ended up in front of the suv's right front tire and she still moving foward I crawled out the way for life as she's moving foward I hear CRUNCH she runs over the L front fork leg and wheel and then stops. Then she puts the thing in reverse and runs over my bike again!! the same fork leg!!

EDIT: smurfer is having probs with his pics, stay tuned. augidog

Anyway I came out a little skathed none the least but nothing broken and get this although I thought for sure the frame forks & everything was bent but to my surprise nothing was bent craked or conpromised I couldn't believe it! RST forks made a believer out of me along with the F&R bike. I told her to pay me 400.00 she gave me 380.00 for the whole mess.

that's my fault

smurfer, if you're having a problem thumbing your pics, just repost them as is, i'll live

I want to see the pics!!!

I think im going to get hit many times per day. People driving cars do not watch out for bikes. Every time I ride down my street and someone is about to pull out of a driveway or sidestreet, I think "I am about to die" but then they see me and nothing happens.

Oh, I am glad that you are ok!

I always say "If I am going to crash, I will put myself before the bike because I can heal and my bike can't"

Getting hit sucks! At least you weren't hurt and made a little profit too. Always remember they never see you.

Tom- We need a "pavement hall of fame", first splotchy star is the Smurfer.
Don't let the meth heads hear they can profit in this manner, an epidemic will occur.....
